- Description
- This volume reflects the potential of a new perspective that allows for a more adequate analysis of transnational activities, by looking at the lives and work of women’s activists in informal border-crossings, ephemeral NGOs, the lower management of established international organizations, and other global networks. By pointing out cultural hierarchies, the vicissitudes of translation and re-interpretation, and the ambiguity of intercultural exchange, this volume demonstrates the potential of transnational history.

- Description
- Turning her attention to the gut and depression, Wilson asks what methodological innovations become possible when feminist theory isn’t so instinctively antibiological. She examines research on anti-depressants, placebos, transference, phantasy, eating disorders and suicidality with two goals in mind: to show how pharmaceutical data can be useful for feminist theory and to address the necessary role of aggression in feminist politics. This book challenge to feminist theory is that it would be more powerful if it could attend to biological data and tolerate its own capacity for harm.

- Description
- The author describes how gender-related expectations interact with other cultural assumptions and stereotypes, as well as with social and economic conditions, to affect women’s experiences and behavior, and the ways in which women’s lives differ between cultures. Featuring more coverage of diversity within the U.S. culture, this updated is accompanied by an updated online edition of Cheryl Rickabaugh’s Sex and Gender workbook.
